Foreword by Mark Jones, Director, Community Practitioners’ and Health Visitors’ Association

Description

The Third Edition of this best-selling book is fully revised, expanded and updated. It provides research-based protocols to enable clinical members of the healthcare team in primary care to manage a wide range of conditions, describes the relevant clinical skills within the limits of safe practice and defines when further referral is needed.

The simple, clear and easy to use format enables practice nurses, nurse practitioners, health visitors, midwives, and school nurses to access the current procedures for dealing with the routine situations they are likely to encounter in their daily practice.

‘The Minor Illness Manual is an excellent resource to all of those who need an easily accessible summary of common complaints and presentations accompanied by concise care and treatment guidelines. An essential tool for today’s primary care practitioner.’
Mark Jones, in the Foreword
